Constraints on gravitational waves from the 2024 Vela pulsar glitch
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1774
Among known neutron stars, the Vela pulsar is one of the best targets for gravitational-wave searches. It is also one of the most prolific in terms of glitches, sudden frequency ch…
All-sky search for continuous gravitational-wave signals from unknown neutron stars in binary systems in the first part of the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1765
We present the results of a blind all-sky search for continuous gravitational-wave signals from neutron stars in binary systems using data from the first part of the fourth observi…
GWTC-4.0: Population Properties of Merging Compact Binaries
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1805
We detail the population properties of merging compact objects using 158 mergers from the cumulative Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog 4.0, which includes three types of binary…
GW250114: testing Hawking's area law and the Kerr nature of black holes
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1785
The gravitational-wave signal GW250114 was observed by the two LIGO detectors with a network matched-filter signal-to-noise ratio of 80. The signal was emitted by the coalescence o…
Directed searches for gravitational waves from ultralight vector boson clouds around merger remnant and galactic black holes during the first part of the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1769
We present the first directed searches for long-transient and continuous gravitational waves from ultralight vector boson clouds around known black holes (BHs). We use LIGO data fr…
GWTC-4.0: Constraints on the Cosmic Expansion Rate and Modified Gravitational-wave Propagation
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1772
We analyze data from 142 of the 218 gravitational-wave (GW) sources in the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration (LVK) Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog (GWTC-4.0) to estimate t…
